thinking about buying an mr2-s

just wanna get peoples thoughts on this. ive already registered on rmmoc and mr2oc just wanna know what this board things of this upgrade.

great fun.. good car.. getting used to an MR car is a bit of a learning curve if you like to drive it hard..

would you want automatic gearbox, manual, or manual tiptronic?

buy rims for your car first!

Don't get auto or the tiptronic. It doesn't do it justice. It's a mid engine rear wheel drive car. Getting auto is ruining the entire purpose of buying that car.

Wheels are the last thing for that car. The number one needed upgrade is the suspension, followed by engine work.

they don't come in auto, only a 5spd MT or 6spd clutchless sequential

^^Right. Now I remember. Some magazine tested both manual and 6 speed sequential. Bottomline: Get manual.

i thought it came as auto.. oh well i guess i was wrong.. my friend has the 6sp sequential one. I like it.. especially in traffic.

no i mean fix up up your rolla first then buy another car.

dude get the 6 speed sequential lol. it'd be like playing initial D arcade hahha

^sorry the gears don't change as quick like initial D. LOL I like using the steering wheel buttons instead though..

^ i suck at that game.... im better at the imitation one

haha do they change fast enough tho?

a split second faster than if you were manual shifting on an auto in the corolla..

haha if i do upgrade id probably trade in my moms gas guzzling minivan and donate my rolla to my brother after reverting it to stock (mostly to stock) and yeah id get a manual. if i do get one id probably just stick to some minor boltons like my corolla has and then donate the rest of my money to suspension upgrades, i was looking at parts for them last night..

im gonna be honest and say that if i could get clutchless sequential shifting, i'd do it. do i really need to shift that fast? lol.

Not Trying To Jack Ur Threat But Iwa Sthinking Bout Selling The Eclispe And Get A Srt-4. Why???
To Get Fast Power????? Stock They Run Like 14 Sec. And Doesn't Need Much To Upgrade

haha its not as good as you think, try test driving a car with it....

i was thinking of getting one too. if my celi ever sales, id probably look into getting one. a hardtop is a must.

PERFECT

finding a good cheap hardtop is almost impossible.. my friend has been looking for over 2 years...

oh yeah movie dont you work at the dealership now? youve got the hookups dontcha?!?

i work at the same one celica_man works at....but like its difficult when they dont have a car instock they have to trade a car...and they dont rly do that for used cars so eh =\

i also have to take into account factors like insurance, rent(moving out soon closer to a light rail station so i can train to school rent will be shared with my dad instead of him paying room and board at school), i have to call my insurance agent and get a quote....i have a feeling the mr2 will be cheaper then an rx8 or s2000

hey, it's sxlostv1!
